BOGOTA COLOMBIA). Monday, February 21, 2022 (RPTV NEWS AGENCY). The National Government regulated the industrial use of cannabis. Now the dried flower can also be used in food, beverages and textiles with its components. The new resolution “allows, defines and establishes all the mechanisms and procedures for the industrial use of the cannabis plant in sectors such as food, alcoholic beverages and dietary supplements, defining, of course, that these uses have to do with the component non-psychoactive”.
Now, this regulation will allow a better development of this industry in sectors such as food, beverages and alcoholic beverages, which use the dried flower of cannabis as one of its main components.
Beer, like any other, is made with malt, hops, and barley, however, its main ingredient is cannabis, which does not cause any kind of hallucinogenic effect or alteration.
“It does contain THC, but it is not the same effect as the psychoactive one,” says Donato Donatien Gateau, a cannabis pastry chef.
For this reason, starting today, this and other products that use cannabis can be legalized thanks to the decree that regulates the industrial use of the plant.
“The regulation is included to make the manufacture of food, energy drinks, supplements and alcoholic beverages with certain parts of plants with non-psychoactive derivatives viable,” said the Minister of Justice, Wilson Ruiz.
In other words, from now on, with the issuance of this decree, the Colombian cannabis-producing industry can start all production processes in the country.
“It seeks to promote development in the country and the generation of employment through the opening of new markets and its contribution to the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, among others,” added Ruiz.
Thus, cannabis or marijuana becomes a new opportunity to strengthen the industry, which according to the National Government will be more than 44 thousand jobs in different sectors that will be generated with the approval of this regulation.
